You can go to Lille from Paris by taking a bus or a train. I took a 3h bus and was really quick. One you get there you can walk around and see all main attractions that are closed to the city center. Food is not expensive. You should try les moulles with french fries and the go to have some dessert in a bakery store but not the gouffre cause it's really thing and small that's not worth the price. To finish you can go to the Citadelle a nice park to have some rest and a drink. I would recommend to do this just in a day cause there's no more else to do after that

I want to talk about my experience in Lille because it was the first time I was hosted by a girl I had met online. I was with my roommate and our host let us stay for two nights in her place, she was such a lovely person to talk to and we could trust each other completely! I am very grateful for this experience and I hope I can do it again in the future. Lille is a beautiful city with cool architecture and some museums that we really enjoyed. The people are really nice too. I recommend it!

I was born and raised in Lille Honestly, I would say that visiting Lille is a great experience. The architecture is beautiful. The food is great. They are a few things to see and to do, plus we’re pretty close from Paris and the coast. However, as a woman, I can say that I do not feel safe here. I’m never comfortable wearing skirts, dresses and tops here. You easily get catcalled and I feel like it’s almost inevitable if you are showing too much skin from men’s (=animals) point of view. To conclude, I would say that coming here is definitely worth it because the north of France is really pretty and has a great culture, however, I would (unfortunately) be cautious with the clothes I’m wearing and would not walk alone at night.

Lille is an international and a student city, 🏙️ I’ve been studying there for 7 years and nothing ever happened to me. If you drink beer, be sure you can make friends very easily 🫣 I will be happy to share some tips and recommendations !
